ExpertDr Disha PatelAyurvedic Physician3 years agoA. During any “ordinary” illness such as a cold, sore throat, flu, wirms infestation, fever, mastitis, etc. you should continue to breastfeed.
breastfeeding should continue without interruption as there is no risk to the baby.
If you need to take antibi otics or other medicine, just check with your doctor first.
it’s still important to make sure you wash your hands often, avoid coughing or sneezing near your baby

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy3 years agoA. If you have a cold or flu, fever, diarrhoea and vomiting, or mastitis, keep breastfeeding as normal. Your baby won't catch the illness through your breast milk – in fact, it will contain antibodies to reduce her risk of getting the same bug. “Not only is it safe, breastfeeding while sick is a good idea.
